From June 20 to 29, PRONI Training Centre held a 10-day exchange on achieving inner peace and harmony.
Right from the start, the organisers managed to create such a supportive environment that all worries and anxieties immediately disappeared.

Life nowadays is full of stress, and because of this, young people and teenagers often experience depression, anxiety, and despondency. What should we do about all this? How can we protect ourselves from stress? How can we help people around us? How can we eliminate the negative consequences? This was the theme of the "Peer Support Works Out" exchange.

1. There is an opportunity to get free juridical consultation. Every member of our Association has opportunity to get lawyer’s advice by telephone or another way. Our juridical service can give a competent advice, help you to draw up an application, will make a visit to official together, if you need it. Whether it is important, we can attract press and public attention.

2. Negotiations with state authorities concerning a family and children (including foster home and adopted children) are continued. A number of meetings concerning a soft loan on construction and housing reconstruction took place in the Ministry of architecture. There was a meeting concerning financing of social programs in the Ministry of Finance. Also there were some meetings in the Ministry of Education. Some questions are solved routinely, some are on consideration.

Some of our offers are accepted by the government.

Our amendment is included in the foster home Clause. Also according to our offer grants for adopted children grew by 11,7 percent since October 1 (we suggested to raise in 3,5 times). According to our offer children's grants will quarterly raise (we offered, that grants raised monthly).

At the same time many problems aren't solved yet. Now the collective letter on problems of foster homes and adopted children is made. If you consider requirements of parents are reasonable and fair, you can subscribe under this letter and suggest to other parents to subscribe under it.

3. Summer Holidays. We organized some trips by our own. Four trips of groups of children and parents took place on the lake Naroch, Nemunas and on Golubye lakes. Everybody who submitted demands in time, could have a rest, even 2-3 times. All trips were almost free.

If you want to take part in the organization of such trips, please, tell us. Leaders, employees of kitchen, medics, drivers, musicians, trainers, leaders of circles are required.
